Symbols - What does heaven look like

Lovers, the

The Lovers is one of the cards in the tarot. It shows the balancing of the two aspects of the mind – the Conscious male principle and the Subconscious feminine principle – see Brain split [left brain, right brain ] . By balancing the two principles one has achieved a unity of the character – a ‘wedding’ in which the subconscious is united with the conscious side. Clearly the two sides are aspects of the same person so they are simply two aspects of the same thing but by uniting, they make it possible to access the Higher spirit – shown as cupid or a winged angel or some other symbolic indication of the Higher spirit.
